What our customer's say!

"New Version of InDesign Almost Out", Unless your needs are pressing, you might want to delay buying InDesign. InDesign CS3 will be announced tomorrow (March 27, 2007) and it'll ship toward the end of April. And yes, if you buy just before a new product is released, Adobe will usually give you an upgrade for the cost of shipping and handling. I just confirmed that this morning with a customer service rep. But you avoid a bit of hassle if you wait. And the new version has quite a few new features including a much improved user interface. Some graphics features of Photoshop have also been ported to InDesign.

"bad amazon", They sent me the wrong product and did not rectifythe problem
last time I buy from this place

"WARNING - All or nothing Creative Suite Package Upgrades", Heads up, if you bought Adobe Creative Suite 1 Package and then buy an upgrade like this one planning to upgrade just part of it, you're in for a rude awakening.

In others words, "Adobe don't play that." What you buy in a suite collected package, can only be upgraded the same way, which makes little sense, but hey they're the ones who wrote the code.

It's all or nothing, when it comes to collected-package product upgrades.

On a side note - the one star is based on this policy, which limits the usefulness of this upgrade product, not the product quality which is probably up to Adobe's normally outstanding standard of excellence.

I'm sure it probably works great, which makes this policy even more frustrating and irritating.

"An amazing tool for the mind.", I've been doing graphic arts pretty much since the stone age. Who among you can remember gelatin transfers, mimeographs, Linotypes, or the smell of beeswax and the sharpening of blue pencils? Stat cameras anyone?

I've used Pagemaker since the beginning. And then InDesign. This version, CS2, is the smoothest, greatest production and layout tool in the world. The integration with Photoshop and the other Adobe products makes it a joy to use. Believe it or not, I am now more productive by myself using just InDesign and Photoshop than was the whole 15-member graphic arts team I directed 20 years ago. Fabulous.
